Coding Success!
If this is your first time reading this,
and you want to code your car like the examples below, send me a PM, I can assist. ------ Okeeey dokey so today with the help of a friend who has an D-CAN OBDII cable, I ran NCS Expert on my 2009 E82 135i, Module: Cas ECU Module: NFRM -> Disabled Cold Start Low Beam Bulb Check (Hopefully stop the bulb warnings after installing LEDs into the DEPO aftermarket headlights) ECU Module: Kombi -> Enabled Digital Speed Won't know if the bulb check disable worked till I do a proper cold start tomorrow, but pretty happy overall. You don't see a lot of 135i owners talking about coding, so I wanted to share this experience and offer basic assistance to anyone considering coding their car Theres a lot of things you can do, a few below in case you're interested * Euro Corner Delete * Digital Speedometer on Cluster * Roll up the window while holding lock on remote * Eliminating the ignition key dong * Folding mirror while holding lock on remote * Eliminating iDrive accept message on pre 09 units. * Unlock doors when car is turned off... No more double pull on handle needed! cheers LOL edit: semi cold start just now and the bulb errors still there Think I missed the correct bulb check in config can someone advise? below are all the KALTUEBERWACHUNG (cold bulb monitor) from my NFRM module trace file Quote:

Fatjoez - that pretty cool you figured out how to code your instrument cluster.I had my car coded by a German guy over here. You should also be able to code the voltage going to the Angel Eyes. You can increase the voltage and make them look very white.

Hey fatjoez, pm me, I finally had my depos installed, and the shop my by my house installed hids with them, and absolutely no error codes whatsoever, and no coding needed. I'll also send you some pics of the custom AEs they did to swap out the crap ones the depos come with.

hey guys
every car is slightly different & has different configuration values & sometimes even names for the same configuration values but here is an extensive list to give you an idea of whats possible http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=9HGKgKvN @N2Nalgas regarding folding mirrors, if your mirrors are electric and they simply dont fold or whatever because of laws etc, then yeah most likely it is possible to activate it same with a lot of features @Sarrachino89 thanks bro, with mine the thing is. I had Depo82 Headlights installed with HID MTEC brand xenons working FINE for 8 months. As soon as I replaced the 16x small halogen bulbs in the rings, with LEDs thats when I started getting bulb errors EDIT: Going to disable the following sensors related to the headlights Quote:

i like these options...
* Roll up the window while holding lock on remote * Eliminating the ignition key dong * Folding mirror while holding lock on remote * Eliminating iDrive accept message on pre 09 units. * Unlock doors when car is turned off... No more double pull on handle needed! I think what everyone really wants.. is getting rid of the dong when the seat belts aren't fastened! |

apparently the configuration option which controls that is found under the Airbag module And as you can imagine thats made people scared as to whether disabling that will disable the Airbag from deploying!!! |

One thing is... that who ever codes you car should do is... first save the OE codes... before you change anything. That way you can reload the old files - incase something doesn't work. Also... IF you ever have your SW updated... this will wipe out any coding and put you car back to OE specs/configeration. Dackel |

Haven't checked to see if the windows will roll up with the lock button held down, wonder if they took my US spec settings and overwrote them with UK spec...

Yeah, I must not be finding it in there, been through the whole thing and I can't figure out where to change it back.

Yo!
I went and saw my friend again today & we disabled the sensors I mentioned above He also has a software called GT1 which he used after to read all the error codes on my car We cleared all the existing ones & did a stop/start which returned a couple errors I believe FRM - 9CB7 FRM Headlight vertical aim control driver fault - Open Circuit --> this is cause the stock Halogen was replaced with DEPO82 Projector Headlights from JLEVI, which dont have vertical aim control hoping this won't trigger a dashboard bulb error, but it shouldn't since the errors only started after I changed the bulbs inside the DEPO housing a quick look through my NFRM module readout I found DYNAM_LWR_ENABLE (active verticle headlight aim control) nicht_aktiv so hopefully this should cover me / be the reason why I havent gotten errors till now! PS: for those considering NCS heres a bigger list of things you can do Quote:

A++ very good information in this thread.. I am trying to learn the arts of NCS Expert and still contemplating which type of cable to purchase that will work in conjunction with that software..
Though it does look quite daunting to take on such task, I feel once mastered it can save much headache in the long run.. I am most interested in the following: - Corner delete (euro style corner lighting). From some reading I understand it has something to do with the sidemarker_us toggle - Angel eye voltage output increase (brighter angel eyes by just adjusting voltage) |

So i did not have a good coding experience. I loaded things up, had some remote help and selected E89 chassis and coded: digital speedo, amber delete, driver seatbelt gong delete, key fob window roll up and when i finished i turned the car all...all codes worked and my dash freaked the fuck out! I have 2 light warnings stuck on and cant remove. We recoded back to stock, i scanned with BT tool and cant remove them. I also have a service reminder light for my radiator which is set for 1/2001 (car wasnt even alive).
We have no idea why this happened, my battery was low and i had to jump it earlier that day prior to coding and shortly afterwards, but something didn't go right. Having to go to the dealer to do ecu reset. We speculate that it could be the low battery voltage or just wrong software. Using the same software from Coding Success on e90 post.

Can anyone help me enable remote roof closing via my remote on my 120i 'vert? Thanks! p.s. I also have the bulb error after replacing my standard park lights with LED's. They were supposed to be error cancelling, but after a while the error showed up. |
